8. Session Management Commands

Perhaps the most useful feature of screen is the way it allows the user to move a session between terminals, by detaching and reattaching. This also makes life easier for modem users who have to deal with unexpected loss of carrier.

8.1 Detach		Disconnect screen from your terminal.
8.2 Power Detach		Detach and log out.
8.3 Lock		Lock your terminal temporarily.
8.4 Multiuser Session		Changing number of allowed users.
8.5 Session Name		Rename your session for later reattachment.
8.6 Suspend		Suspend your session.
8.7 Quit		Terminate your session.
